Hi, i recently bought a wii on a fly market, and a friend of mine softmodded succesfully.
Long story short; with priiloader, wii boots to usb loader gx, can load wii games, everything runs fine..
but with GC games, before play any gc game, i changed default gc loader from DML to Nintendont. No problem, the game selected runs with nintendont. But when a quit the game, usb loader gx ask me to dump iso from usb to sd, then go to config on usb loader, and the option to change from DML to Nintendont dissapear, and cant select nintendont again..

wii 4.3u
micro sd 2gb (no locked)
latest version usb loader gx (official)
latest version nintendont (also official
250gb external usb fat32 (wii isos on wbfs folder, and gc on "game" folder, every game has their own named folder, and inside a game.iso)

any ideas???

i really dont want change to another loader, i think cover flow based loader are awful XD

THANKS

PS: im not english native :P

If you're getting that error you've probably got an older version of the loader. Check the version number in the credits screen and make sure it says "3.0" (not "3.0c") and revision 1260.

The "3.0c" is the full channel version and it isn't supported anymore.

Just look on the credits screen. That link is just the main project page. I don't know which file you downloaded. :)

USBLoaderGX_r1260.7z is the current loader. USBLoaderGX_v3.0_IOS249.wad is the old channel version.

If you're autobooting from Priiloader you should use this forwarder dol instead of telling it to boot to one of the items on the autoboot list. Just copy it to the root of your SD and install it from Priiloader's menu.

There's no way :(

I installed on priiloader the forwarded.dol you post. OK
I install on SD USBLoaderGX_r1260.7z on sd:/app/usbloader_gx/. OK (only boot.dol, icon.png, meta.xml)
Everything runs fine. on USBLGX, go to global settings, loader setting, gamecube settings, and, in gamecube mode i change "MIOS (Default)" to "NINTENDONT".
I DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE :(
Go back, load a GC game... Perfect.
I press select on my DS3 to quit. OK
then, when USBLGX load again, going to a gamecube game, and, again ask me to copy a game from USB to SD :(

Is there any other option I have to change in global setting?? what if I change necessary options, turn off wii, and lock the SD?

Any suggestions???:unsure:

Yes, look on the credits screen after you exit the game and see what the version is. If you look in your System Menu's settings under channels and you see USB Loader GX in there then you do have the old full version installed. I still think you have the full channel installed on your NAND and it's returning to that instead of the dol on your SD.

The settings are getting reset because the loader sees they're not marked with the right revision when it loads.

You know, stupid me, i guess you re right. I have installed usbloader on nand, when i get home, i'll uninstall and tryyyy it again

Thnks :)

Edit

It work :), after unistall usbloader channel, it keeps changes made on global settings, and everytime i turn on wii, i can play gc games.... But (there's a big but) now, when i quit any gc game (not wii games) wii freezes and got to force turn off wii.

Anyway, im happy now not having edit sd everytime, if, there's a solution, i can wait to find one
